You are completely missing the point. You said we make most of our laws based on the ten commandments. I merely pointed out that the ten commandments expressly forbid adultery, but we don't have Christians running around trying to outlaw that now do we. The debate about religion came up because you used your religious beliefs as a reason for why gay marriage should not be legalized. If you don't like the validity of that view being debated, then keep it to yourself.
Religion itself has not been debated. No one here has said religion is bad or people are stupid for being religious. We've all just agreed to keep our religious beliefs to ourselves so they don't impinge on the free practice or lack of practice of religion of our fellow Americans.
